So I’m planning about 45 minutes to temp acclimate, then at least an hour drip. Maybe longer.

I repositioned the big flat rock on the right side to hold the Magnifica.

Up high, lots of flow, directly under 2 pucks at approximately 330 par per my Seneye.

Also adjusting spectrum to 10k vs 12k over the next week to 10 days.

A fellow R2R member will be at my place in a few minutes.

He’s here to look at my prior system, IM30L.

He’s gonna help me get the new nem in the tank too.

The Mag is inflating and the mouth has closed up a lot since introduced. The clowns still have no clue.

I know I gotta give them a little time. The have been spending way more time away from their corner and out and about more so I’m hopeful.

I just don’t want to change their names to dumb and dumber!

Looks good ! ! Now let's hope it doesn't go walkabout ;)

Oh, it won’t! I already told it to stay put.

So, you know, everything happens in our tanks just like we want it to. So I feel good about it ;)

Lights are ramping down and the new nem is deflating.

Foot is still spread and attached and mouth it tightly closed.

Whew!

I hope it’s in the same spot when I wake up!

As far as the clowns go.........I think they may be millennials. To lazy to go check it out :)

Good news...... the Mag is still in the same spot.

However, it’s deflated and mouth is slightly open.

Will have the wife send me some pics at lunchtime
